Financial position and key metrics
- Nasdaq notified the Company that it did not meet the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(A), which requires at least $10 million of stockholders’ equity.

Material changes, outlook, and risks
- The deficiency notice had no immediate effect on the Nasdaq listing; Momentus’s common stock remained fully listed and effective as of the filing.
- The Company had until January 5, 2024 to submit a plan to regain compliance and stated that it intended to submit the plan by that date.
- If Nasdaq accepted the plan, it could provide up to 180 additional days from the notice date to cure the deficiency. If Nasdaq rejected the plan, the Company could appeal to the Nasdaq Hearings Panel, which could grant an additional extension of up to 180 calendar days.
- Failure to regain compliance or submit an acceptable plan within the applicable periods could result in delisting from the Nasdaq Global Select Market.
